Concepts and architecture of Vista-a multiparadigm programming environment
@article{Schiffer1994ConceptsAA, title={Concepts and architecture of Vista-a multiparadigm programming environment}, author={Stefan Schiffer and Joachim Hans Fr{\"o}hlich}, journal={Proceedings of 1994 IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages}, year={1994}, pages={40-47} }
This paper describes Vista, a visual multiparadigm programming environment. We introduce the notion of processors and networks and discuss their application in the construction of event-driven and data-transformation systems. Further, we give an overview of Vista's object-oriented architecture.<<ETX>>

Class Structure Graphs for Object-Oriented Design and Implementation
- Computer Science
- 1995
A language independent representation of systems taking the form of graphs of object-oriented source-code is introduced, so existing implementations can be analysed on different levels of abstraction in order to gain better understanding of a class''s structure as a basis for proper reuse.
VisiTile-a visual language development toolkit
- Computer ScienceProceedings 1996 IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages
- 1996
The VisiTile toolkit facilitates the specification and implementation of a hybrid class of visual languages that combine data-flow with grammar-based layout that is used as the basis for syntax-directed editing and interpretation of visual programs.
Reducing Cognitive Load by Adding High-Level Semantics to ReactoGraph
- Computer Science
This paper identifies three areas where end-users report difficulty in using the language and presents alternative solutions to the original design by introducing high-level semantics to the language.
FAR: an end-user language to support cottage e-services

FAR, an end-user language to offer and deliver e-services and its multiparadigm approach to combining ideas from spreadsheets and rule-based programming with drag-and-drop web page layout devices is presented.
Mulspren: a multiple language programming environment for children
- Computer ScienceCHINZ '03
- 2003
A novel programming environment called Mulspren is presented, designed to let children lever their knowledge of English to learn conventional programming constructs---knowledge that could help them when they are older and need programming skills.
Reduction of Cognitive Load Through the Addition of High-Level Semantics to ReactoGraph
- Computer Science2004 IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages - Human Centric Computing
- 2004
This research studies usability problems in ReactoGraph, a visual programming language designed to simplify the development of graphical user interfaces that suffers from complexity in defining message passing, inter-component data flow, and event handling.
Reactant : An Interaction Technique for Unifying the Structural and Behavioral Definition of User Interfaces
- Computer Science, Art
An interface development environment called ReactoGraph is created that uses the reactant as basis for defining interface behavior, and allows the developer to create a unified mental model of the interface by providing a editable visual representation of theinterface structure and behavior.

STATEMATE: a working environment for the development of complex reactive systems
- Computer Science[1988] Proceedings. The Third Israel Conference on Computer Systems and Software Engineering
- 1988
The main novelty of STATEMATE is in the fact that it 'understands' the entire descriptions perfectly, to the point of being able to analyze them for crucial dynamic properties, to carry out rigorous animated executions and simulations of the described system, and to create running code automatically.
